A 19.0 L helium tank is pressurized to 26.0 atm. When connected to this tank, a balloon will inflate because the pressure inside

the tank is greater than the atmospheric pressure pushing on the outside of the balloon. Assuming the balloon could expand indefinitely and never burst, the pressure would eventually equalize causing the balloon to stop inflating. What would the volume of the balloon be when this happens

Answer:

The new volume of the balloon when the pressure equalised with the pressure of the atmosphere = 494 L.

The balloon expands by am additional 475 L.

Explanation:

Assuming Helium behaves like an ideal gas and temperature is constant.

According to Boyle's law for ideal gases, at constant temperature,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = 26 atm

V₁ = 19.0 L

P₂ = 1 atm (the balloon is said to expand till the pressure matches the pressure of the atmpsphere; and the pressure of the atmosphere is 1 atm)

V₂ = ?

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

(26 × 19) = 1 × V₂

V₂ = 494 L (it is assumed the balloon never bursts)

The new volume of the balloon when the pressure equalised with the pressure of the atmosphere = 494 L.

The balloon expands by am additional 475 L.

Hope this Helps!!!

The decomposition of N2O4 into NO2 has Kp = 2. Some N2O4 is placed into an empty container, and the partial pressure of NO2 at e

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Expression for the given decomposition reaction is as follows.

$N_{2}O_{4} \rightarrow 2NO_{2}$

Let us assume that x concentration of $N_{2}O_{4}$ is present at the initial stage. Therefore, according to the ICE table,

$N_{2}O_{4} \rightarrow 2NO_{2}$

Initial : x 0

Change : - 0.1 $2 \times 0.1$

Equilibrium : (x - 0.1) 0.2

Now, expression for $K_{p}$ of this reaction is as follows.

$K_{p} = \frac{P^{2}_{NO_{2}}}{P_{N_{2}O_{4}}}$

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

$K_{p} = \frac{P^{2}_{NO_{2}}}{P_{N_{2}O_{4}}}$

$2 = \frac{(0.2)^{2}}{(x - 0.1)}$

$2 \times (x - 0.1) = (0.2)^{2}$

x = 0.12

This means that $P_{N_{2}O_{4}}$ = x = 0.12 atm.

Thus, we can conclude that the initial pressure in the container prior to decomposition is 0.12 atm.

A brick has a mass of 4.0 kg and the Earth has a mass of 6.0 × 1027 g. Use this information to answer the questions below. Be su

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

a) $2.4\times 10^{24} kg$ is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b) $2.5\times 10^3$ moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.

Explanation:

a) Mass of brick = 4.0 kg

1 mole = $N_A=6.022\times 10^{23}$ particles/ atoms/molecules

Mass of $N_A$ bricks :

$=6.022\times 10^{23}\times 4.0 kg=2.4088\times 10^{24} kg\approx 2.4\times 10^{24} kg$

$2.4\times 10^{24} kg$ is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b)

Mass of the Earth = M = $6.0\times 10^{27} kg$

Mass of 1 mole of brick = m= $2.4\times 10^{24} kg$

Let the moles of brick with equal mass of the Earth be x.

$m\times x=M$

$x=\frac{M}{m}=\frac{6.0\times 10^{27}kg}{2.4\times 10^{24} kg}=2.5\times 10^3$

$2.5\times 10^3$ moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.
